Scott Drexler and Eric Parker were sentenced Thursday in Las Vegas after pleading guilty last October to misdemeanor obstruction. They avoided a third trial with the chance of more time in federal custody. During two trials, each was acquitted of some felony charges, but juries deadlocked on other counts. Parker, of Hailey, Idaho, still has one year under federal supervision. Drexler, of Challis, Idaho, remains free without probation or supervision. Each spent about 18 months in federal custody and stood trial on 10 felony counts that could have gotten him decades in prison. "The time for war has not yet come, but it will come and that soon, and when it does come, my advice is to draw the sword and throw away the scabbard." Gen. T.J. Jackson, March 1861
